Holmium Lasers have been the industry standard for Laser surgeries in Urology for well over thirty years. The technology has not been without its limitations. One major limitation of Holmium lasers is the tendency for stones in the urinary tract to move to hard to reach areas when being broken down by the laser resulting in longer procedure times for surgeries than initially anticipated. To address the limitations of Holmium Lasers, Lumenis® technologies developed a patented pulse delivery technology (MOSESTM ). Some of the improvements on traditional Holmium Lasers include:
- reduced stone migration in procedures;
- improved energy transmission that increases efficiency in tissue removal and reduces procedure times;
- a unique pulse control system that improves visibility during procedures and reduces bleeding during procedures.
The Moses technology represents the pinnacle in the evolution of Holmium Laser technology.
Kelina Hospital recently acquired the Lumenis® P120H, a Holmium Laser device that comes equipped with the patented Moses Technology. The Lumenis® P120H is the first Holmium Laser device with MOSESTM technology in Africa. The acquisition of this machine is guaranteed to reduce procedure times ensuring patients don’t need to stay unnecessarily long periods under anesthesia.
Kelina Hospital is constantly looking for ways reduce risks associated with surgical procedures and improve the quality of treatment that patients receive in our facilities.
